Blizzard is offering those who bought BlizzCon 2010 tickets, even
DirecTV virtual tickets, the opportunity to buy
exclusive BlizzCon merchandise online for 48 hours this weekend -- or at least they were supposed to, hours ago. Right now, the store is completely busted and no one is able to access the exclusive items. Blizzard is on the case, according to a
forum post, but there's no ETA on when people will actually be able to make purchases.
UPDATE: Blizzard has updated the original post saying that the sale will begin Sunday, Oct. 10 at 10 a.m. PST.

Its quite obviously the fault of the Obama administration.

For what it's worth, I can't buy the DirecTV package either. The site doesn't seem to have updated.

I remember when the site died 2 years ago when I bought Blizzcon tickets... Did I mention that it was 2 years ago???

Just announced by a blue, the start of the sale has been pushed back until Sunday.

Note: DirecTV's site has NO WHERE where subscribers can actually purchase the event. I got the live stream and put my account number hoping that when this is all fixed they can get it sorted out, but it is very disappointing to not know if I will have to fix things or pay $80 when I was hoping just for the DirecTV PPV.
Calling them about this got me the Blizzcon number and they were completely clueless and swamped which caused the person to be less than helpful until she realized I wasn't asking about when I got Deathy or if I could get to the store.
I'm not impressed, this could have been coordinated much better.

Just purchased the PPV from http://eu.blizzard.com/blizzcon/ no problem (the link from the official EU site)

I went to the store and they only had 10 Blizzcon Items for sale. Is that all there will be?

Yes, it's still separate. At the moment, it seems to be scheduled so that the real ticket holders finish up right before us virtual ticket holders should be starting. Hopefully they'll be keeping some stock for us, or separating them a bit in between...

That is correct. "A second 48-hour sale for BlizzCon Virtual Ticket purchasers will be taking place beginning October 13" http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=27026480083

Go on YouTube and search for "BlizzConk" (No Quotes)
Maybe this is part 2!
